A blog expanding on the subjects discussed in our movie "Science Sex and the Ladies." We blog critically on a specific intersection of science, sexuality, and feminism; particularly paying attention to how female sexual response is discussed, portrayed, and studied in our culture. So...if you're interested in science, sex, lady stuff, or indie movie making...this is the blog for you.

Honest Liars Podcast!

Guess how I spent my 4th of July this year? Skyping into a podcast with an American and an English dude living in South Korea, that's how. It's The Honest Liars podcast, and it was, uh, super fun. I am a bit of a nervous wreck about talking. I prefer to write so that the thoughts have time to slowly move from my head down to my feet and then around to some other places and then out of my body before someone gets bored and asks another question. It just takes a while, ya know? However, I think it went well. The guys, Colin and Adam were really thoughtful and fun.

Plus their Honest Liars site is something I think is pretty cool. It's all about creating radically honest relationships in your life - and not like, "oh you should, like, always be honest with each other!" No, this is some deep honesty shit. It's about being honest about yourself and with yourself and then putting that honest version of yourself out there - often into relationships that were not founded on that kind of honesty. It's about accepting the honesty from others - and deciding how the relationship should begin, continue or end based on that honesty. I listened to some of their other podcasts, and I'm definitely for the shit these dudes are spitting. I also think that kind of deep, radical honesty is right in line with Science, Sex and the Ladies. Things gonna have to get preeettttty real about the female orgasm in a lot of people's minds and a lot of bedrooms if we want to see see much change in the sexual culture.

Anyway, we talked about all kinds of fun stuff; masturbating to Lady Marmalade, the female porn area of PornHub, Betty Dodson's advise about vibrators under pillows, sexual scripts, pee holes, you name it, we discussed it. There was tons more we could have talked about, but we talked so much it had to be split into 3 parts, so it's good for now. Plus, I think we got into some really good discussions. Have a listen.
